There was a story about a dog that was running around outside during a heatwave. It didn't have access to shade or water. As the day went on, it started to show signs of heat stroke like vomiting and staggering. Neighbors found it and tried to cool it down, but it had already been severely affected.
Always provide fresh water. A dog should have access to clean water at all times, especially in hot weather. This simple step can prevent dehydration which is a precursor to heat stroke.
One horror story is about a pitbull that attacked a small child in a park without any provocation. The child was severely injured. Another instance involved a pitbull getting loose and attacking a neighbor's pet dog viciously.
Heatstroke was a disorder of the central nervous system and circulatory system caused by the body's body temperature regulation in a high temperature environment. According to its mechanism, it can be divided into heatstroke, heat spasm, and heat exhaustion. Heat exhaustion was a relatively mild form of heatstroke. It was mainly due to long-term activity in a high-temperature environment. After sweating a lot, the body lost too much salt and water, resulting in dehydration and insufficient blood circulation. There were symptoms such as hyperhidrosis, wet and cold skin, pale face, nausea, dizziness, significantly increased heart rate, low blood pressure, oliguria, etc., which could be accompanied by dizziness and syncope. The body temperature often rose but did not exceed 40 ° C. Some patients only had high body temperature in the early stage. Heat spasms are caused by excessive sweating and loss of vitamins (especially loss of Na), resulting in muscle spasms and pain. Common symptoms include muscle spasms, pain, and cramps, which mostly occur in the muscles of the limbs, masticatory muscles, and abdominal muscles (especially the calf muscle). They are symmetrical, and the body temperature is generally normal. Heatstroke was the most serious form of heatstroke. It was extremely harmful to human life and had a high mortality rate. When the body temperature is too high (more than 40 ° C), and the heat cannot be distributed through sweating and heat radiation, there will be severe central nervous system malfunction and circulatory system failure, such as high fever, loss of consciousness, convulsions, increased heart rate, breathlessness, hot and dry skin, etc. There may also be general convulsions, rhabdomyolysis, multiple organ malfunction syndrome, etc., which can easily lead to multiple organ failure. In general, heatstroke was a broad concept. Heatstroke, heat spasms, and heat exhaustion were different types. Heatstroke was the most serious.

He might have a high fever from a heatstroke. Heatstroke was divided into premonition, mild heatstroke, and severe heatstroke according to clinical manifestations and severity. The body temperature of threatened heatstroke was normal or slightly higher, generally not more than 38 ° C; the body temperature of mild heatstroke was more than 38 ° C; severe heatstroke could cause high fever, such as heatstroke patients may have extremely high body temperature. If there are symptoms of heatstroke, corresponding measures should be taken according to the severity of heatstroke. Serious heatstroke requires emergency treatment.

Heatstroke could be divided into several stages according to the severity of the condition, and heat spasms were one of them. Heat spasms are usually caused by excessive sweating at high temperatures, resulting in an imbalance of the mitochondria, especially the loss of the salt, causing muscle pain or convulsions. It is commonly seen in the abdominal, arm, or leg muscles. The symptoms of heat spasms mostly occurred when excessive sweating and thirst, drinking too much water and insufficient salt replenishment caused the concentration of salt in the blood to rapidly decrease. Heat spasms were mild heatstroke. After timely treatment, they could generally recover in a short period of time. If they were moved to a cool and well-nourished place in time, they could be supplemented with water and salt to alleviate the symptoms. They could also apply ice cubes or wet towels to the large blood vessels on the forehead or neck to cool down. Physical cooling (such as rubbing with alcohol, cold water bath, etc.), medication cooling (such as intravenous infusion of Thorpromazaine), correcting the imbalance of the solute balance (appropriate water and salt replenishment, but the infusion should not be too fast to avoid heart failure and lung and brain edema), maintaining a good respiratory cycle (oxygen supply and keep the respiratory tract unobstructed, immediately inject central stimulants for those with weak pulses, and at the same time give vasopressors to prevent shock) and other measures. Compared to the other stages of heatstroke, the symptoms of heat spasms were relatively mild, while the more serious stages of heatstroke included heat exhaustion and heatstroke. Heat exhaustion was mainly manifested by excessive loss of salt and water after excessive sweating, resulting in dehydration and insufficient blood circulation. The symptoms included dizziness, nausea, weakness, pale skin, dampness, and a drop in blood pressure. Heat stroke was a very serious emergency. It occurred when the body temperature regulation system failed, causing the body temperature to rise sharply by more than 40 degrees. The symptoms included high fever, dry skin, no sweat, headache, nausea or vomiting, rapid heartbeat, rapid breathing, or coma. The novel "Watching the Moon on Fish Island" is equally exciting.

The following are the five steps for emergency treatment of heat stroke: 1. Transfer to a cool and well-vented place: Transfer the person suffering from heat stroke to a cool and well-vented place as soon as possible to avoid the high temperature environment from further aggravating the heat stroke. 2. Undoing clothes to dissipate heat: Undoing the clothes of the person suffering from heatstroke is conducive to dissipating heat. If possible, the patient can lie flat and raise his feet to promote blood flow to the brain and improve blood supply to the brain. 3. Heat dissipation: - Use a wet towel (such as mineral water or white wine) to wipe the body, focusing on wiping the forehead, chest, armpits and other parts; At the same time, use a fan to fan the air to accelerate the heat dissipation, but pay attention to avoid the patient from catching a cold. - For patients without collapse, cold water of 2.0 - 14.0 ° C can be used for bathing; for patients with collapse, cold water of 15 ° C can be used to repeatedly wipe the skin until the body temperature drops to 39 ° C. You can also use an ice cap, or use a plastic bag filled with ice to close to the carotid artery on both sides and the groin on both sides to cool down. You can use an ice blanket to cool down the whole body, or wipe the skin with ice water. - If the child has a heatstroke, he can drink a small amount of warm water many times when he is awake. If possible, he can take oral rehydrating salt or light salt water. He can also help the child untie his clothes, wipe his body with cold water, and wrap an ice bag with a towel to apply cold compress on his groin, head, and other places. 4. Replenishment of water and vitamins: If it is a premonition of heatstroke or mild heatstroke, you can take light salt water or salty refreshing drinks by mouth; if there is a mild heatstroke with circulatory disorder, you can supplement 5% glucose salt water by vein (not too fast); if it is severe heatstroke, you should supplement 5% glucose salt water or normal salt water by vein, and supplement plasma when necessary. 5. Prompt medical treatment: If the heatstroke is serious, such as coma, it should be sent to the hospital for further treatment immediately. For severe heatstroke patients who are ineffective in external cooling, the doctor will use icy salt water for gastric or intestinal irrigation, or sterile normal salt water for abdominal cavity irrigation or hemodynamics and other professional treatment measures.
